Workflow is a set of activities accomplished sequentially in a business or a system to complete a process. It is a tool to support the organization’s structuring by indicating the sequence of activities to be executed and the automation of repeated actions to gain efficiency. Workflows are implemented across different areas, including marketing, sales, customer support, and operations.
Task Sequencing: Schedule a set of activities in sequence to avoid excess manual efforts.
Conditional Logic: Customize the flow of tasks based on certain criteria such as user behavior or data inputs.
Collaboration: Allow for cross-process collaboration; make specific tasks go to the various parties or teams involved severally.
Notifications and Alerts: Utilize notification features for a task to ensure that it remains on course and notify everyone concerned about a task that needs performance.
Automated Responses: Send out trigger responses, such as sending emails or updating records on specific events.
Increased Efficiency: Several activities are automated, enabling teams to execute higher-intensity functions and increase productivity.
Consistency and Accuracy: Sparks positive outcomes by increasing the efficiency of a task and, therefore, decreasing the likelihood of an error.
Improved Collaboration: Easier to manage the work among employees or departments due to the defined sequences of steps and auto-provided assignment tasks.
Better Time Management: Workflows assist in managing time well by ensuring that there are fewer delays, as processes are controlled mechanically.
Data-Driven Decisions: They can also gather information about the performance of tasks and results concerning the process to work on their improvement.
